Officer

An Officer is any soldier in an army that has authoritative powers over the other soldiers. In Mercenaries: Playground of Destruction, they are members of a faction that are more resilient and smarter than the typical soldiers. Usually denoted by alternate clothing and weapons, they will also have their factions flag over top of their head.

When the player is disguised, and they venture into visual range of an officer, the officer will see right through the ruse, and will be quick to alert their fellow soldiers. They are usually stronger and can take more bullets than regular soldiers.

Allied officers wear standard Allied battle dress with a light blue beret in place of a helmet. They are only found at Allied installations, such as the M.A.S.H., but for on instance where one gives a press conference. This particular officer is assassinated by the mercenary under the orders of Sergei Voronov.
